Abstract
Biodegradable electronics have great potential to reduce the environmental footprint of electronic devices and to avoid secondary removal of implantable health monitors and therapeutic electronics. Benefiting from the intensive innovation on biodegradable nanomaterials, current transient electronics can realize full components’ degradability. However, design of materials with tissue-comparable flexibility, desired dielectric properties, suitable biocompatibility and programmable biodegradability will always be a challenge to explore the subtle trade-offs between these parameters. In this review, we firstly discuss the general chemical structure and degradation behavior of polymeric biodegradable materials that have been widely studied for various applications. Then, specific properties of different degradable polymer materials such as biocompatibility, biodegradability, and flexibility were compared and evaluated for real-life applications. Complex biodegradable electronics and related strategies with enhanced functionality aimed for different components including substrates, insulators, conductors and semiconductors in complex biodegradable electronics are further researched and discussed. Finally, typical applications of biodegradable electronics in sensing, therapeutic drug delivery, energy storage and integrated electronic systems are highlighted. This paper critically reviews the significant progress made in the field and highlights the future prospects.

Abstract
Through advances in molecular design, understanding of processing parameters, and development of non-traditional device fabrication techniques, the field of wearable and implantable skin-inspired devices is rapidly growing interest in the consumer market. Like previous technological advances, economic growth and efficiency is anticipated, as these devices will enable an augmented level of interaction between humans and the environment. However, the parallel growing electronic waste that is yet to be addressed has already left an adverse impact on the environment and human health. Looking forward, it is imperative to develop both human- and environmentally-friendly electronics, which are contingent on emerging recyclable, biodegradable, and biocompatible polymer technologies. This review provides definitions for recyclable, biodegradable, and biocompatible polymers based on reported literature, an overview of the analytical techniques used to characterize mechanical and chemical property changes, and standard policies for real-life applications. Then, various strategies in designing the next-generation of polymers to be recyclable, biodegradable, or biocompatible with enhanced functionalities relative to traditional or commercial polymers are discussed. Finally, electronics that exhibit an element of recyclability, biodegradability, or biocompatibility with new molecular design are highlighted with the anticipation of integrating emerging polymer chemistries into future electronic devices.

Development, Processing and Applications of a UV-Curable Polymer with Surface Active Thiol Groups. NANOMATERIALS 2020; 10:nano10091829. [PMID: 32937782 PMCID: PMC7558128 DOI: 10.3390/nano10091829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2020] [Revised: 08/26/2020] [Accepted: 09/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/27/2022]
Abstract
We present here a novel resist formulation with active thiol groups at the surface. The material is UV curable, and can be patterned at the micro- and nanoscale by UV nanoimprint lithography. The resist formulation development, its processing, patterning and surface characterization are presented here. In addition, a possible application, including its use to modify the electrical properties of graphene devices is shown. The cured material is highly transparent, intrinsically hydrophilic and can be made more hydrophilic following a UV-ozone or an O2 plasma activation. We evaluated the hydrophilicity of the polymer for different polymer formulations and curing conditions. In addition, a protocol for patterning of the polymer in the micro and nanoscale by nanoimprinting is given and preliminary etching rates together with the polymer selectivity are measured. The main characteristic and unique advantage of the polymer is that it has thiol functional groups at the surface and in the bulk after curing. These groups allow for direct surface modifications with thiol-based chemistry e.g., thiol-ene reactions. We prove the presence of the thiol groups by Raman spectroscopy and perform a thiol-ene reaction to show the potential of the easy “click chemistry”. This opens the way for very straightforward surface chemistry on nanoimprinted polymer samples. Furthermore, we show how the polymer improves the electrical properties of a graphene field effect transistor, allowing for optimal performance at ambient conditions.

Abstract
Light can be used to spatially resolve electrochemical measurements on a semiconductor electrode. This phenomenon has been explored to detect DNA hybridization with light-addressable potentiometric sensors and, more recently, with light-addressable amperometric sensors based on organic-monolayer-protected Si(100). Here, a contribution to the field is presented by comparing sensing performances when bovine serum albumin (BSA) and hexaethylene glycol (OEG6) are employed as antifouling layers that resist nonspecific adsorption to the DNA-modified interface on Si(100) devices. What is observed is that both sensors based on BSA or OEG6 initially allow electrochemical distinction among complementary, noncomplementary, and mismatched DNA targets. However, only surfaces based on OEG6 can sustain electroactivity over time. Our results suggest that this relates to accelerated SiO x formation occasioned by BSA proteins adsorbing on monolayer-protected Si(100) surfaces. Therefore, DNA biosensors were analytically explored on low-doped Si(100) electrodes modified on the molecular level with OEG6 as an antifouling layer. First, light-activated electrochemical responses were recorded over a range of complementary DNA target concentrations. A linear semilog relation was obtained from 1.0 × 10-11 to 1.0 × 10-6 mol L-1 with a correlation coefficient of 0.942. Then, measurements with three independent surfaces indicated a relative standard deviation of 4.5%. Finally, selectivity tests were successfully performed in complex samples consisting of a cocktail mixture of four different DNA sequences. Together, these results indicate that reliable and stable light-activated amperometric DNA sensors can be achieved on Si(100) by employing OEG6 as an antifouling layer.

Abstract
This paper describes surface functionalization of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) films by transamidation of the ester groups with primary amines. The use of water as a solvent improves tremendously the reaction rate and yield compared to conventionally used alcohols. In this study, PET films were exposed to an aqueous solution of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES), which resulted in ester-to-amide reactions on the surface of the film. Hydrolysis of the resulting ethoxy moieties in APTES creates hydroxyl groups that can be used as anchoring points for further modification of PET films. This scheme offers an alternative approach to modify polyesters using water as the solvent.

Abstract
The interface between fibre and matrix of fibrous polymeric composites is most critical and decisive in maintaining sustainability, durability and also reliability of this potential material, but unfortunately a comprehensive conclusion is yet to meet the label of confidence for the engineering viability. Fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) composites are being accepted and also utilized as better and reliable alternative materials for repairing and/or replacing conventional materials, starting from tiny objects to mega structure in various engineering applications. The promise and potential of these materials are sometimes threatened in speedy replacement of conventional materials because of their inhomogeneities and inherent susceptibility to degradation due to moist and thermal environments. Environmental conditioning is traditionally believed to be a physical phenomenon but present literature has revealed that the interdiffusion between fiber and polymer matrix resin comprises of physical, chemical, mechanical, physico-chemical and mechano-chemical phenomena. The failure and fracture behavior at ambient conditions itself is a complex phenomenon till at present. The service conditions which are mostly hygrothermal in nature, along with a variation of applied loads make the mechanical behavior nearly unpredictable, far off from conclusions in evaluating the short term as well as long term durability and reliability of FRPs. It is essential to accurately simulate the initial and subsequent evolution process of this kind of damage phenomena, in order to explore the full potential of the mechanical properties of composite laminates. The present review has emphasized the need of complying scattered as well as limited literature on this front, and has focused on creating the urgency to highlight the importance of judicious uses of these materials with minimum safety factors with an aim to achieving lighter weight in enhancing specific properties.

Abstract
A polymer molecule (represented by a statistical chain) end-grafted to a topologically rough surface was studied by static MC simulations. A modified self-avoiding walk on a cubic lattice was used to model the polymer in an athermal solution. Different statistical models of surface roughness were applied. Conformational entropies of chains attached to uncorrelated Gaussian, Brownian, and fractional Brownian surfaces were calculated. Results were compared with the predictions of a simple analytical model of a macromolecule end-grafted to a fractal surface.

Abstract
Competitive protein adsorption from human serum onto unmodified polyethylene terephthalate (PET) surfaces and plasma-polymerized PET surfaces, using the monomer diethylene glycol vinyl ether (DEGVE), has been investigated using radioactive labeling. Albumin and immunoglobulin G (IgG) labeled with two different iodine isotopes have been added to human serum solutions of different concentrations, and adsorption has been performed using adsorption times from approximately 5 s to 24 h. DEGVE surfaces showed indications of being nonfouling regarding albumin and IgG adsorption during competitive protein adsorption from diluted human serum solutions with relatively low protein concentrations, but the nonfouling character was weakened when less diluted human serum solutions with higher protein concentrations were used. The observed adsorption trend is independent of adsorption time, indicating that the protein concentration has a stronger influence on observed adsorption characteristics of the material than the adsorption time has.

Abstract
Lateral and normal forces between a surface-bound, brushlike copolymer, poly(ethylenimine)-graft-poly(ethylene glycol) (PEI-g-PEG), and a silica colloidal probe were investigated with atomic force microscopy (AFM) and related to the relative mass of the solvent absorbed within the polymer as measured with the quartz crystal microbalance. PEI-g-PEG was adsorbed onto an oxide-passivated silicon wafer through its exposure to physiologically buffered solutions of the polymer. Frictional forces were measured between the colloidal probe and the substrate by AFM as the polarity of the solvent was systematically varied. Reduced friction forces and greater film thicknesses were encountered under solvents of higher polarity, which are attributed to the extended conformation of the brushlike copolymer under these conditions. Lateral and normal forces detected between the colloidal probe and this surface-bound PEI-g-PEG were found to be similar under certain solvent conditions to those measured for poly(L-lysine)-graft-poly(ethylene glycol), a brushlike copolymer with a different molecular architecture. To this end, friction force studies of both symmetric and asymmetric PEI-g-PEG-coated interfaces served to identify the contributions of conformational and bridging effects in the observed tribological behavior.

Abstract
We examined the adsorption, on hydrophobic and hydrophilic surfaces, of 4 rake-type poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) copolymers varying the amount of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) graft arms from 41 to 72%. The copolymers formed large aggregates in solution, complicating their adsorption kinetics and layer structures. We found the adsorption process always to be dominated by the adsorption of large aggregates, with strongly bound layers resistant to rinsing in adsorbing buffer. Adsorbed amounts were nearly independent of the substrate. However, subtleties in the adsorption kinetics suggested different layer structures for the different systems. On hydrophilic silica, aggregates adsorbed at the transport limited rate until surface saturation, and associated interfacial structures were likely retained. On the hydrophobic surface, a subset of the copolymers exhibited retarded late stage adsorption kinetics suggestive of brush formation. This work demonstrates how subtle differences in adsorption kinetics provide insight into potential interfacial layer structures.

Abstract
The comb-like PEG (CPEG) end-tethered with L-lysine was explored to surface modification of PET to enhance endothelialization. The hydroxyl end groups of CPEG were oxygenated into aldehyde groups. The CPEG-CHO was grafted onto the aminolysized PET. The L-lysine was then end-tethered onto surface via the residual aldehyde groups. The surface modification was confirmed by ATR-FTIR, contact angle and XPS measurements. The endothelial cell adhesion, proliferation and viability results indicated that the PET-CPEG resisted cell adhesion and growth, where as PET-CPEG-lysine promoted cell adhesion and growth. The MTT assay and total cell protein tests indicated that the endothelial cells on PET-CPEG-lysine had high viability. Cell spread uniformly and covered completely on the PET-CPEG-lysine. The CPEG end tethered with L-lysine could regulate cell adhesion and growth and enhance surface endothelialization.
